RrSPL3 confers drought tolerance in Rosa roxburghii by activating flavonol biosynthesis
A previously unrecognized SPL-FLS-flavonol regulatory module that links early drought signaling to metabolic antioxidant defense is uncovered, providing mechanistic insight and potential molecular targets for improving drought resilience in R. roxburghii and horticultural species.
